This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 690 - 594: I Have a Plan!

Lines so brilliant they could bring a person to tears appeared on the body of the black ominous beast, perfectly cleaving it into two halves.

Black fog surged madly, attempting to cover up this crack and, incidentally, digest the cultivator it had swallowed whole.

But instead of being obscured by the dark mist, the light became even more dazzling and distinct!

Without a sound, the ferocious beast howled internally, yet the soaring Sword Qi within could no longer be restrained, bursting outwards and causing massive chunks of the black fog to shatter, along with the runes within it continuously fracturing.

Enshrouded in darkness, Liang Yi's complexion took on a strange hue. This character actually used the purest Abyss Demon Qi to engulf him with the Cliff Sword Intent. It seemed that after this character was created, it was not connected with the Abyss Will.

"Quite gutsy, aren't you..."

Since Liang Yi knew this character couldn't contact the Abyss now, he relaxed slightly. It appeared that the information this little thing had overheard had not yet reached the Abyss—most likely, it alone knew it, or it relied on an inside agent to pass the message.

Behind Liang Yi, seven stars shone brightly as he released his Divine Sense, finely probing the composition of this space.

Before long, Liang Yi's lips curved into an intriguing smile, his right hand holding Yuan Zhou as he twirled the sword into a flourish. With a shift in the sword's momentum, he thrust Yuan Zhou forcefully into the black void beneath his feet!

The wind stilled and the waters calmed, a white ripple suddenly emerged, annihilating all surrounding darkness with absolute power!

With Yuan Zhou at the core, and the ripple's spatial edge as the boundary, Liang Yi forcibly opened up a Sword Domain uniquely his own inside the bizarre space within this black otherworldly beast!

Any Abyss Demon Qi that came into contact with this Sword Domain melted instantly like ice and snow, offering no resistance whatsoever.

Liang Yi, with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, fixed his gaze on a certain place in the darkness; as the surrounding Abyss Demon Qi perished, the core hidden in the darkness naturally had no place left to hide!

From the perspective of the outsiders, the black beast that was previously convulsing suddenly froze, and a familiar Sword Intent emerged, as easily as dusting off ash, dispelling the sky-covering dark fog in one sweep!

Liang Yi, with his ethereal figure purged of dust, reappeared before the crowd, his sword pointing directly at the "Abyss" character.

If he had faced it head-on, it would indeed have been troublesome to dispose of this little thing, since even without intelligence, it possessed the power of the Ninth Realm, and who knew what strange methods the Abyss might have left on this character.

Liang Yi had allowed himself to be swallowed not only to probe for information but also to collaborate in a pincer attack with his junior sister and the others. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Unfortunately, Liang Yi underestimated his own strength; now, he was fully capable of single-handedly slaying enemies of this level without issue.

"Is that it?"

Shi Hu's expression stiffened, and the power he had built up inside him stalled for a moment, nearly causing him to choke.

"Of course not, I've merely temporarily suppressed it with Sword Intent. Had it not carelessly swallowed me, giving me an opportunity to breach it from the inside, it would have been quite difficult to defeat it head-on."

Liang Yi's right hand was extremely steady, with his sword's tip firmly pressed against the Abyss character, suppressing any resistance.

Although this Abyss character was now devoid of those previously mysterious defensive runes, there was still an invisible barrier guarding it.

Liang Yi almost had an accident due to its sudden move, but thankfully his sword was sharp enough, with the Seven Stars linked and the Power of the Stars combined with the Cliff Sword Intent, directly pinpointed at its core.

"That's still quite astonishing..."

Even upon hearing Liang Yi say this, Shi Hu could not mask his amazement. Hadn't Liang Yi just entered the Eighth Realm not long ago? To have grown so powerful already?

Keep in mind that the character from the Abyss had only a small crack on its shell after his full-force attack.

Afterwards, it was the Abyss character itself that realized it could no longer hide its Abyssal Aura. It actively transformed its shell into rune-form, simultaneously unleashing its full might—an offensive prowess immensely stronger than just relying on speed and hardness for defense!

Although it had wasted quite a bit of strength in the confrontation, it still had the solid power of the Ninth Realm, and yet it was so effortlessly subdued.

"The runes have been collected; if handed over to Shixiong and the others, they should be able to research something out of it, right?"

Elsewhere, Su Youyi also wrapped up all the mysterious runes dispersed by Shixiong with infinite Sword Intent, shrinking them into a small orb like a glass ball and tossing it to their master Chen Hua.

"Good job, it's just too bad we couldn't draw out the mastermind behind this..."

Chen Hua checked the small glass ball in his hand and, after adding a few more layers of seals, was satisfied enough to put it away.

"I also didn't find any movements."

The Grand Saint of Nine Spirits retracted his Divine Sense that had spread throughout the entire Secret Realm, shaking his head in disappointment.

He and Chen Hua had spread their Divine Sense to every corner of the Secret Realm; not a single cultivator who spied on the battle could escape their surveillance.

Yet the outcome was not as satisfactory as they hoped, as both he and Chen Hua failed to detect anyone acting out of the ordinary.

"Thank you for your hard work, Banished Immortal senior. We'll take it from here."

While keeping a close watch on all the details of the entire Secret Realm, Jiang Fufeng, who was also monitoring the situation from afar, immediately communicated the state of affairs to Chen Hua.

Chen Hua was just about to say something with a smile when his expression suddenly sharpened.
